This year's theme for the Performing Arts and Presidential Speaker Series is "A Life in Balance," and this year's speakers bring very different perspectives to the topic. From a social ethicist to a medical doctor to the combined talents of a world-renowned chef and an internationally-acclaimed wine expert, they promise to stimulate our mind and our senses. Performing artists for this year are equally diverse and include a world-renowned mariachi band, a chamber orchestra, an acclaimed mime, a classical guitarist, and a male a cappella ensemble. Their talents alongside those of our students and faculty promise another season of making arts central at CWU!
